Not a drip after pulling the water pump and putting in a set of NOS gaskets -

Beautiful Vette. Yes it pays to always install good factory gaskets. I heard of guys going the cheap way with intake gaskets and have them fail with a coolant leak. Not good. Your car looks great. Enjoy.

I've got to get a GOPRO so I can film more video - setting the Canon up in the car for video is nearly impossible!

Thanks Rich, that is my favorite shot of the car as well... really shows off the "coke bottle" shape of C3's.
Just so happens that the room above my garage is about 15 feet off the driveway... which makes as close to a perfect over head position as one could hope to achieve without designing for it.
